Young Stars - Children Helping Children

The 10th anniversary Children Helping Children concert takes place at Cadogan Hall on 27 April 2013. The concert supports the charity Hemihelp, the national charity for children and young people with hemiplegia. The concert presents young musicians aged between 7 and 17 years old, playing in support of the charity. At the first Children Helping Children concert ten years ago, violinist Nicola Benedetti made an appearance before going on to win the BBC Young Musician of the Year. This year the concert features a 13 year old pianist and composer who will perform a movement from his own concerto, a 17 year old clarinet player and the Junior Brass Band from the Centre for Young Musicians. Sean Rafferty, from BBC Radio 3, will act as special guest presenter, Siobhan McMahon MSP will be the guest speaker and the concert will be performed in the presence of HRH Princess Alexandra.
